Skinny Love.






















Just picture what your curly headed mother would be wearing on Easter Sunday 1996 and you will probably conjure up an outfit extremely similar this floral dress. The dress is cut in that awkward mid-calf length style and screams "window drapery" pattern. No, my frame is not that angular, its just the shoulder pads. Aside from all dresses' tragedies, there is something almost magnetic about the fabric. Maybe i do only like it for its nostalgic quality. The pattern spans from neck to calf with no break in its rhythem, the belt even shares in the intensity of the motif. Something your mother most likely wasn't wearing on Easter morning 1996 were these leather ankle moccasins(unless she got Easter confused with thanksgiving, it happens)they just drip whimsy and edge and are not only undeniably hip but undoubtedly comfortable.
